Summary
"Achieving a long-lasting impact on health outcomes requires focus not just on patient care, but also on community approaches aimed at improving population health through addressing gaps in Social Determinants of Health (SDOH). SDOH have been found to disproportionately affect those in low-income brackets and the disabled to varying degrees based on locale. The purpose of this exploratory research was to determine 1) which SDOH have the greatest negative impact on disabled and elderly populations within four targeted states (Iowa, Ohio, Minnesota, Wisconsin) and 2) if there is a difference in negative SDOH impact between metro and non-metro locales. Having the ability to target residentially-based social interventions could improve health outcomesIndividual-level data were obtained from disabled persons aged 65 years or older who responded to the Centers for Disease Control.Application of the results of this study could inform legislation and health insurance benefit design for micro-populations" -- Amazon.com
